Asbestos surveys in Ruislip
Leading asbestos surveyors and inspectors in Ruislip, Eastcote and the surrounding area
Even though asbestos was fully banned in 1999, it is still regularly found in buildings across Ruislip. It often lies hidden in Artex ceilings, asbestos cement garage roofs behind the 1930s Metroland semis of Ruislip Manor, pipe lagging in older family homes, or suspended ceilings in post-war offices and shop units.

Accredited asbestos management surveys in Ruislip – arrange your visit
Our asbestos surveyors carry out thorough asbestos management surveys (previously known as Type 2 surveys) for properties of every kind. We track down concealed asbestos so you can put a solid plan in place to manage the risk. These non-intrusive inspections record exactly where any asbestos is located and what condition it is in.

Planning a renovation or extension? Arrange an asbestos refurbishment and demolition survey in Ruislip
Whether you are altering an older property or preparing for a full strip-out in Ruislip, the law requires an intrusive refurbishment and demolition (R&D) survey before work starts.
Our asbestos surveyors use intrusive techniques to inspect hidden areas such as floor voids and cavity walls. That way, nothing is missed before your builders get to work. Surveying first prevents asbestos fibres from being disturbed at any stage of the project.
It also means a clear plan for dealing with any asbestos waste is agreed before contractors arrive on site.
Your local specialists for asbestos monitoring and re-inspections
Our regular re-inspections keep your commercial premises compliant with current health and safety law. We check the condition of recorded asbestos materials over time, so you can act quickly if we spot wear, weathering or accidental damage.
With routine professional checks, we help protect your staff, customers and maintenance teams from exposure across Ruislip and the wider North West London area.

Frequently asked questions
Are 1930s houses in Ruislip likely to contain asbestos?
It is common. Much of Ruislip's housing, particularly around Ruislip Manor, Eastcote and South Ruislip, was built during the interwar Metroland boom and has since been extended or modernised, often between the 1950s and 1990s, when asbestos was widely used. Typical places to find it include garage roofs, soffits, textured ceilings, floor tiles and old boiler cupboards. A survey or sampling is the only way to know for certain.
Do I need an asbestos survey before extending or converting my Ruislip home?
If the property was built before 2000 and the work will disturb its structure, such as a loft conversion, side return or rear extension, a refurbishment and demolition survey should be carried out beforehand. Most builders in the area will want to see one before they start, and it protects your family and tradespeople from exposure.
